saw alot too Leslie, they were in really good shape...light green one with green case was $425 and I was sure tempted...at a quilt show you know they have been gone over and are running 100%...

I found a FW for $75 from a lady who was closing out an alterations shop. Unfortunately, she decided to raise her price before I could get to it. It's well worth the higher price, but out of my range.

GOsh ,Nanamoms, hope you find one at a better price but they were good prices. Depending on condition. One will come your way. HUGS♥♥

Keep looking, you will find your perfect FW for a lot less than he is asking.

Why am I not rich? He wants $500 for the 221 and $975 for the 222K. :( with tears!

Edit: He has 3 origiinal FW cabinets, too!

Another Edit: I meant for this to be in Main, not Classifieds but in my amazement, I goofed!
Go to www.sewitsforsale.com and sign up they have several on there and I get messages in my email all the time, people listing them for sale. they have some good buys on various items.

Obviously she's gotten carried away and I think a bit greedy. I wish you luck in finding one.
We have a lady in our guild who also had 13 but I do think she acquired another..each of hers are named and they are all used. She keeps them in wonderful working condition and alternates using them. She makes magnificant large quilts and sews on nothing but her FWs.
